The paper presents and analyses the development of open source software and the building of
digital library with reference to the GSDL software. It describes digital library and its importance in
details. It also discusses with illustrations how to build a digital library by using the open source
software i.e. ‘Greenstone Digital Library’. Searching and browsing full text information is also described
taking example from New Zealand Digital Library. It identifies the strength and limitation of GSDL.
It is predicted that GSDL is becoming popular digital library software because of its flexibility and
low cost/no cost of ownership. The author conclude that because of its cost effectiveness and
flexibility GSDL can be a powerful tool in bridging the gap of digital divide in India. |
